    Barbara, I just love your esthetic. And your problem solving skills never cease to amaze me. Thank you so much for what you do. You are an inspiration.

    Love this envelope! I also keep fun placemats from restaurants to use in my journals. A fun way to document our day or evening out.

    Hello Barbara, each of your videos is a breath of fresh air. Your creativity is infinite and I love the authenticity with which you record your videos, with mistakes, imperfections because that's what being creative is, doing things without being perfect, making mistakes and correcting them. Thank you very much for being who you are.

    A circle???? A round shape???? Are you feeling ok? Are you running a fever? No, wait! That is not you. Barbara doesn't do round shapes. Heyyyy, who took Barbara???? You bring her back this minute.
    hahahahah, loved the project. Kisses.

    Very clever to upcycle the paper placemat like that!!!! The restaurant probably would have given you a stack of them! They would have chalked up to advertisement!!!!! It has some neat stuff printed on it!!!!

    Oh cool place mat! Yes I bet you were super careful🙊. WHAT? That's not family size? 😱😄. I've never made an envelope from a circle before, no need to round corners! Lol it's the way it's a nice blue green though! I hate how stuff stains gels, I often get stains when cooking curry or even eating oranges 🙈 😄. The cheesecloth and thread makes a huge difference 😍. Gesso and mediums are essential, it's a shame a lot of none painters are scared of them at first because they help so much. Absolutely gorgeous 😍. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

    The circle into an envelope is soo cool. And i never thought about a fabric hinge! Nice job. Oh, I recently heard on another channel that you can actually use toothpaste to clean your hands and fingernails when they get stained with alcohol inks!! I don't know if i should mention the other channel but if it's okay you can ask me! You might already be a subscriber. Love this journal. I need to finish decorating my Sept pages and get ready for October. Fall is my favorite season and my favorite color pallet. Besutiful hournal. TFS. ❤❤❤

    Is it ever a concern that the water color or paint will stain the page of the book pages you add the art work into?
    Thanks for making your videos. They are a highlight of my evening after a long work day.

    Thanks, Barbara. I could make some really interesting cards with this placemat. "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved" ( Romans 10:9). Saved from what? God's wrath that is going to be poured out on this world (Revelation). Jesus is coming soon. Make your decision for Him now.
